Mount Wachusett Community College President James Vander Hooven and Veterans Services Director Robert Mayer welcomed Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 907 member Jim Benton, on March 13, 2025 who presented MWCC a donation from the Vietnam Veterans of American Massachusetts State Council.
“Chapter 907 of the Vietnam Veterans of America has been supporting Mount Wachusett Community College veterans for decades,” stated Robert Mayer, MWCC Director of Veterans Services. “Recently, at the local chapter’s urging, the VVA State Council has also provided support. I think it is wonderful how the area Vietnam Veterans are supporting other veterans as much as two generations younger!”
Chapter 907 of the Vietnam Veterans of America has been directly and indirectly supportive of Mount Wachusett Community College veterans for 20 years. Their annual donation to the scholarship, and the example they set in the community has helped inspire other organizations and individuals to follow suit. There are now six annual scholarships dedicated to veteran students.
